NOTAM is issued standing at surface to 75K and will have dial-in to 100K
access to 200K AGL' (Site B+) from 10am-12pm.
Get your rockets ready!

Hey Folks,
Launch details are on the website.
The launch is really simple, bring your rockets and launch pad & equipment
and I will run the FAA waiver for you.
We will have a generator.
We will have Porta-potties if someone will pick-up and return the
Portaportties in Reno.
I will be there along with our other members. This is an excellent chance
to fly some big stuff in God's gift to Rocket launch sites - Blackrock! If
you've never been to Blackrock, this is a perfect chance to learn to
navigate and get around there.
You will only have to pay $20 for the whole weekend including BLM permit
($15 donation to the club, $5 to BLM).
Best call Brunos if you have no camping plans and book a room now: (775)
557-2220
We will have a LOT of fun and meet at the launch site every morning at 9AM
till whenever!
Oh yes, rules - there are no rules other than the golden rule (do unto
others) and be in compliance with the Tripoli
safety code and local ordinances.
PS, We don't have generator and light Nazis either so if you want to crank
your music and
party all night you can do that too :-)
Thanks,
-James

Hey Folks,
Can I get a final tally of everyone who wants to come launch @Blackrock
4th of July weekend (4th of JuPlaya)?
At this point, we're good to go; we have the BLM permit, FAA Waiver
and hopefully those who go will be locked and loaded now ...
Let me know, we will plan accordingly.
Thanks!

Thanks Mike G and Mike Smith
I know we already have at least 5 additional attendees also ... waiting
to see if we have more...
Anyhow, for those of you who haven't flown an N, here's a perfect chance
to do that while getting all of the love and help
from your fellow TCC fliers!!!

Hi Folks,
Great news! Bummed about DairyAire this year - here is your chance to
make up for it!
We managed to plan and put together a TCC Club launch out at Blackrock
on the weekend of Independence Day (4th of July) ! We also have a
commitment from Bay Area Rocketry
to for the weekend for as our vendor.
Launch Dates
Friday 07/03 (6AM to 6PM - Site B+ (150K+) from 10AM-12PM)
Saturday 07/04 "
Sunday 07/05 "
The FAA has approved our flight operations from surface to 150K (146K
AGL)
and the range will be open from 6AM - 6PM for all 3 days of the event
(the whole weekend).
Launch Site A (BALLS Site)
DMS N40°52'59.73" W119°02'04.73"
DD N40.883258, W119.034647 (40.883258, -119.034647)
(Alternate site available for large projects)
If you are planning high altitude flights up to 50K AGL, please send
your package with all supporting paperwork to me and Richard King for
approval.
If you're flying over 50K AGL, you will need approval by the Tripoli
Class 3 Committee 90 days prior to flight. Since the FAA was delayed
this
year in issuing our COA, please get your Class 3 package together ASAP
and I will have it submitted (I already have mine approved from last
year so if you have questions or need an example, email me off chat).
The club DOES not plan to bring launch equipment to the event this
year; it's strictly bring your own gear (like BALLS). However, if
there are
people willing to haul equipment, we can arrange for 1-2 pads and I am
sure you can bargain with people for use of their gear.
We will arrange for Portapotties and there will be a few areas to hang
out
(our Blackrock Lounge as usually done at BALLS).
Launch fees: $25 for the entire weekend!
We can discuss more at the June launch, but now is your chance
to get some good rocket flying in (next 6 weeks will be pure Rocket
fun)!
I'll get the website updated in a bit. But now can I see a show of
hands for who's going?
Thank you!
-James
President, TCC
